Steering Noise

I had the same kind of feel and with steering wobble at 85kmph. felt the vibrationin steering wheel and could feel it starts from left front wheel.

after the wheel balancing the noise and vibration gone but still feel the same crushing sound when i am going in the bad road. if the road is smooth I dont find any issues.

I dont find an left or right pulling issue, no steering wobble but this vibration,the occational grinning/crushing noise from front left tyre in bad road is occuring, some time rough roads ( even road seems nice).

but the problem of brannewpunter is different than that of allignment.
may be any screw is left unattended on the steering assembly or in the odo meter console.

@brandnewpunter: please take your car to TASS & take a appointment for the same and told them that you can not able to drive the car with this noise.
That is annoying you from enjoying the ride of car.

I took the car to the A.S.S today and the SA is not ready to honor warranty for the elastic pads.
He said it will come @ around 3.8K per piece. My car is running at 34K Kms.
AFAIK this should be covered under warranty till i clock 35k, am i correct?

Try contacting Mangesh for clarification, My pads were replaced twice with in 35K

My Linea (4.5 years / 27K kms) has noise while turning steering. This started after I drove through 9-12 inches of water in rains over a month back. The loise was loud initially and could be hard even while driving / taking turns, but has reduced significantly over time and can be heard only the car is idle and you want to hear it deliberately. It's like parts of a rusty ball bearing grinding against each other.

Got the car checked up at the free service camp at Butta Hyderabad last weekend. I was told this is due to steering mount, which needs to be replaced cost ~7K.

I had a problem with steering wheel. Couple of months back was getting loud kat noise only while turning right e.g. u-turn. I went to KHT Service center, and they immediately said its a shock-absorber lubrication problem. After lubrication problem vanished immediately. But in recent days I noticed different sound similar to a mouse click while turning wheel in either direction. Today when I showed this problem to KHT, they opened the steering wheel, said its headlight stalk switch issue. IT was interfering with steering movement. They fixed the issue without any part replacement and the sound is gone.

I too get this same sound as reported above by VARIN11. The wheels pull sideways sometimes (left or right), especially on rough stretches or uneven asphalt. The FASS here says that it's an issue with the axle. My MJD will be 6 years old and has clocked 39594 till date. A fair advice will be of immense help! Got new shoes on. Alignment and balancing done and are perfect. No lower arm issue as they are new.
